What plane is this? i want the model

A piston–cylinder device contains a mixture of 0.5 kg of H2 and 1.2 kg of N2 at 100 kPa and 300 K. Heat is now transferred to th

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

(a) The heat transferred is 2552.64 kJ

(b) The entropy change of the mixture is 1066.0279 J/K

Explanation:

Here we have

Molar mass of H₂ = 2.01588 g/mol

Molar mass of N₂ = 28.0134 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂ = 500/2.01588 = 248 moles

Number of moles of N₂ = 1200/28.0134 = 42.8 moles

P·V = n·R·T

V₁ = n·R·T/P = 290.8×8.3145×300/100000 = 7.25 m³

Since the volume is doubled then

V₂ = 2 × 7.25 = 14.51 m³

At constant pressure, the temperature is doubled, therefore

T₂ = 600 K

If we assume constant specific heat at the average temperature, we have

Heat supplied = m₁×cp₁×dT₁ + m₂×cp₂×dT₂

cp₁ = Specific heat of hydrogen at constant pressure = 14.50 kJ/(kg K

cp₂ = Specific heat of nitrogen at constant pressure = 1.049 kJ/(kg K

Heat supplied = 0.5×14.50×300 K+ 1.2×1.049×300 = 2552.64 kJ

b) $\Delta S = - R(n_A \times lnx_A + n_B \times ln x_B)$

Where:

$x_A$ and $x_B$ are the mole fractions of Hydrogen and nitrogen respectively.

Therefore, $x_A$ = 248 /(248 + 42.8) = 0.83

$x_B$ = 42.8/(248 + 42.8) = 0.1472

∴ $\Delta S = - 8.3145(248 \times ln0.83 + 42.8 \times ln 0.1472)$ = 1066.0279 J/K

Consider a fan located in a 3 ft by 3 ft square duct. Velocities at various points at the outlet are measured, and the average f

natulia [17]

Answer:

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

Explanation:

given data

area = 3 ft by 3 ft

air density = 0.075 lbm/ft³

to find out

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor

solution

we know that energy balance equation that is express as

E in - E out = $\frac{dE \ system}{dt}$ ......................1

and at steady state $\frac{dE \ system}{dt}$ = 0

so we can say from equation 1

E in = E out

so

minimum power required is

E in = W = m $\frac{V^2}{2}$ = $\rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}$

put here value

E in = $\rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}$

E in = $0.075 *3*3* 22 \frac{22^2}{2}$

E in = 0.1437 Btu/s

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

why is the thermal conductivity of super insolation order of magnitude lower than the thermal conductivity of ordinary insulatio

Anni [7]

Answer:

Super insulation are obtained by using layers of highly reflective sheets separated by glass fibers in an vacuumed space. Radiation heat transfer between any of the surfaces is inversely proportional to the number of sheets used and thus heat lost by radiation will be very low by using these highly reflective sheets which will an effective way of heat transfer.

Reasons for racking back on a wall

zmey [24]

Answer:

Racking is the term used for when buildings tilt as their structural components are forced out of plumb. This is most commonly caused by wind forces exerting horizontal pressure, but it can also be caused by seismic stress, thermal expansion or contraction, and so on.

Charging method .Constant current method

mina [271]

Answer:

There are three common methods of charging a battery; constant voltage, constant current and a combination of constant voltage/constant current with or without a smart charging circuit.

Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage. The current will then taper down to a minimum value once that voltage level is reached. The battery can be left connected to the charger until ready for use and will remain at that “float voltage”, trickle charging to compensate for normal battery self-discharge.

Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Charge times are relatively long with the disadvantage that the battery may overheat if it is over-charged, leading to premature battery replacement. This method is suitable for Ni-MH type of batteries. The battery must be disconnected, or a timer function used once charged.

Constant voltage / constant current (CVCC) is a combination of the above two methods. The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level. The current then reduces as the battery becomes fully charged. The lead acid battery uses the constant current constant voltage (CC/CV) charge method. A regulated current raises the terminal voltage until the upper charge voltage limit is reached, at which point the current drops due to saturation.
